About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life and have my own pup that I absolutely adore. I’ve had experience with senior dogs, puppies and dogs with medical condition. My dog has anxiety so I have plenty of experience with semi-reactive dogs on walks too! I have a pretty flexible schedule so I’m able to do walks throughout the day at any time. I’m also an early bird and don’t mind an early morning walk. I’m very aware of my surroundings, whether it be at home or on the walk. Making sure that food is safely away and there’s nothing they can chew on or hurt themselves with. Being very vigilant on walks with other dogs, cars, etc.
“Nicte was great! She is super nice and Luka liked her instantly. She responds as soon as she can and communicates well. Happy to have found her to walk Luka :)”
About: Many of my closest buddies are doggies! Most recently I had two toy fox terriers for a decade, I have sat with all range of breeds and ages. There is a saying about dogs and children gravitating toward a person, isn't there? My friends and clients can tell you that I am trustworthy and communicative. I am a person that has been told: "they usually don't like strangers/people/visitors, but they love you!" I have years of loving dogs, I don't have any at the moment because I recently moved back from Europe. I look forward to meeting your family member and giving them love and attention while you are away. I have my own car, a fairly flexible schedule, and can't wait to meet new furry friends.
About: I have had pets in the home for as long as I can remember. I have always had a passion for animals and will treat yours like family. Happy to discuss any special requests you may have for your pet. I am very flexible, happy to work with your pets needs! I am currently between jobs so have a mostly open schedule. Lets message to discuss! I will treat your home and pets with the upmost respect. I will respect and follow both your and your pet's boundaries. Let's message to discuss further.
“Nico is a great walker kind responsible and caring. He has great dog karma w our golden retriever puppy. He’s also an excellent communicator. Highly recommend.”
About: Best Response Hours: M-F 11am - 7pm I've been an animal lover since I can remember, and I continue to develop that passion by pet sitting, dog walking, dog training, and horseback riding! I specialize in caring for and training dogs, including those with reactivity, anxiety, and behavior that requires special attention. I grew up with a large dog that I had begged my parents for, and it was through him that I learned how to properly care for a dog. I have been a pet sitter for several neighbors since I was a teen, and I worked for a local pet sitting and dog walking business where I gained extensive experience caring for all sorts of breeds, sizes, and temperaments of dogs and cats. I adopted my own dog, Willow, in the beginning of 2021. She was estimated to be about 3 years old and she had behavioral issues including reactivity and anxiety. My goal had been to save and change a dog's life for the better, so I was up for the challenge of Willow. I continue to meet that goal each and every day with Willow, and I am so proud of our hard work and dedication. We continue to attend training classes and pack walks, and also enjoy learning new tricks and competing in dock diving! Working with Willow has developed my passion for helping more dogs. I have such a personal, daily experience caring for and training my reactive dog, and I'm excited to extend my knowledge and experience to help care for your pets, too. At the end of the day, it's most important to me that your pet feels loved and is happily cared for. I look forward to treating your furry family members as if they were my own! Currently, my schedule is typically open 3-4 weekdays between 11am and 5pm with some flexibility. I keep my calendar up-to-date, and will respond to your inquiries as soon as possible. I aim to make every dog feel safe and content during my time caring for them. I carry safety tools with me on all walks to protect your furry family member and I from any possible unwelcome harm outside (i.e off leash dogs, etc.). I do not allow anyone, whether it be a stranger or a familiar neighborhood face (both human and animal form) to say hello to us up close while your dog is in my care.
About: 10 yrs with anxious pups & kittens • Same-day walks/drop-ins • WFH—flexible & fast replies I grew up with cats and have fostered for a local rescue, so I’m comfortable with cats of all temperaments—including shy or senior kitties. I'm also very familiar with dogs and often walk and care for my neighbors’ pups! Whether it’s playtime, pets, or just keeping them company, I love making sure animals feel safe, loved, and seen. • 30-min visit: potty break, play, meds if needed • Fresh water + food + litter scoop • Pics & text update every visit I only accept bookings for neutered pets, thank you for understanding! Meet and greets mandatory to make sure your pets are comfortable with me ✨ I'm currently working from home/freelancing and have a very flexible schedule—able to drop in at any time! I prioritize your pet’s needs and routine above all else. I treat every pet and home with care and respect. I follow instructions closely, keep litter areas clean, and ensure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and calm during each visit. I make sure your dog gets outside walks and time to sniff around!
“Tatiana was promt, loving and we'd trust her with our fur babies again!”
About: I spent 6 years studying the Science of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Husbandry & worked an additional 3-4 years within the felid! I can quickly identify almost any problems your pet may have (if any, of course) & help them accordingly! I am originally from Guadalajara, México I speak Spanish & English, I now live in Studio City with my Husband! I'm an Actress with the flexibility that comes with being one, I'm available upon request any day of the week & am open to house sitting as well as opening my own apartment to your pets if need be! I will take care of your pet like mine! i'll make sure it's always safe and we're going to have a lot of fun together 🥰🤩
“Jessie is a great walker. My dog is recovering from nuetering and she followed my instructions, made sure he had water and took some great photos on their walk. I would book with her again.”
About: I used to have a small dog (a cute little pug), so I know how to communicate with dogs. And I love all dogs!! I love walking them and playing with them! Later mornings, afternoons and evenings would work. In toluca lake myself, so I prefer to to be near east side of LA! But I can travel if it's for sitting or boarding! We live in a big compound so if they are boarding with me, they will get lots of trees and sun, and there's a dog park here! When I'm sitting them, I love reading and watching tv with them!
“Ceara was a great communicator, prompt and sent updates. She provided me the peace of mind that my dog was being cared for in my absence. I will hire her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of nearly every type of dog at every age, same goes for cats. It’s important to me that your pet(s) are cared for, & I make an effort to keep to the schedule & rules they’re used to. Very experienced with large breeds & high anxiety dogs. I’m a freelancer so my schedule is fairly flexible & I work from home. There’s rarely an occasion I need to be somewhere physically, if I do need to be gone for several hours, I always check to make sure that’s ok in advance. My house rules are set by your house rules. If dogs are allowed on your furniture, that's good by me. & if they aren't, I'm happy to uphold those rules. I have a very large balcony (600 sq ft) & a walk-friendly neighborhood. When out on the balcony, I keep dogs on a leash just to be safe, the balcony is gated & was dog-proofed before I even moved in. Long walks are super fun to me, & if your dog is open to a hike, I'm happy to take them with me. If not, I'm good with potty breaks & lounging.

“Jo is an AWESOME pet sitter! We were nervous about leaving our cat and new puppy with anyone (first time dog pawrents haha) and when we met with Jo we instantly knew our they were in good hands. She truly went above and beyond. She was professional, courteous, and kind every step of the process. And the best part was, her compassion for our nervous new family member who had more than one accident (whoops!!) while we were away was unmatched. She also did an amazing job keeping our cat on his medication schedule, which is honestly something we have trouble with ourselves at times. We have and would recommend Jo as a pet sitter to anyone who wants a pet sitter and/or dog walker who cares about your pet as much as you do!”

Lynae C.
“We first used Lynae to house sit and watch our two cats. The situation was a little stressful because one cat was an emergency rescue and was still adjusting to our home, and we would be gone for 2 weeks! We were SO happy to find Lynae, it was like every time we thought to ourselves 'how are the cats ...' she provided a wonderful update that put our minds at ease. Not only did she watch the house but also helped keep consistency for behavior modification and regular playtime, and of course lots of cuddling and attention for them too! Our home was left just like we left it, and our kitties were happy and calm. We don't take a trip now without checking with Lynae, it is so nice to have found her!”
Universal City dog parents share their Rover experiences
When our plans fell through, my boyfriend Daniel and I needed to find a great dog walker fast for our elderly Staffy, Harley. We were lucky and grateful to find Alienor!! She is kind and caring. She even offered to meet our old pup in the morning before the gig of walking Harley in the evening. 🙏🏼Looking forward to booking with Alienor again 💖
Calee was absolutely lovely to work with! She was very responsive and willing to work with us to make sure Ducky was comfortable and well taken care of. She was great at communicating and sent lots of great pictures and videos. 10/10 recommend her for taking care of your pet. ❤️
Alex was awesome and showed my dog lots of love while I was gone on my trip. I can tell she already misses him and their walks together each morning and evening. Thanks Alex! :)
Hayden has been an incredible walker and friend to my pup Lady! She is communicative and flexible when it comes to schedule adjustments. Having just moved to the area she has made our transition of finding the perfect new walker seamless! 10/10 recommend
Melissa was a great dog walker for my pup! My dog is pretty reactive and from what I heard their walk went smoothly! Canalita was exhausted after!
Natalie is always dependable when we need someone to watch our dog. Would recommend and will hire again!
Not only am I super happy with Adrienne but also my pup Layla loves her! She always takes her on a long walk, plays with her and gives her a treat. She is super reliable and I 100% trust her with Layla. I cannot recommend Adrienne enough!!
My last dog walker moved to NY, so had to find a new pal for my pup. Thankfully I came across Christopher and he got along great with my dog during our meet and greet. I was going to be a few hours away and needed a couple walks to hold her over until I returned. Christopher was on time for both walks and I received photos and updates. Would recommed Christopher!
We love Michelle!! Our senior border collie really loves his walks and we feel at ease knowing that he's in good hands when we're not home. From the first meet and greet we were totally impressed with her professionalism and extremely thorough questioning. She owns her own dog and she is VERY knowledgeable about dog breeds. We also have a somewhat complex combination lockbox and she had no problems following our instructions. She's very responsive and reliable and communicating is easy. I am transitioning back to work and knowing that my baby has someone trustworthy really helps my anxiety leaving him. We have Michelle recurring weekly with walks now and it truly is a relief! I highly recommend Michelle!
Upon meeting Cassandra she was very professional and sweet. She quickly bonded with both of our dogs and asked important questions that would help her better understand our dogs' behaviors and needs. We appreciated how precise she was in describing how she was going to care for our dogs and followed through in all respects. We were routinely sent updates and numerous photos on a daily basis. Cassandra captured some beautiful moments of our dogs together that we are going to frame at home. She's a great picture taker! We really appreciated all her efforts and look forward to working with her again!
Kathryn is wonderful! Roddy loves her and she was very communicative about timing and the walk. Will definitely rebook!
Adam is a great communicator, punctual, and got along perfectly with my dog. Grateful to have found him
Alex has been very patient with our dog Winston who can be suspicious of new people coming into the apartment. After just a few walks, Winston has warmed up to him. Alex is reliable and a good communicator, too. Would absolutely recommend.
Lindsay has been my go to dog walker as she’s very consistent, timely and my dog loves to go on walks with her. Couldn’t recommended more.
Andre’s the best! Quick response times, takes amazing care of our pup. What more could a dog owner ask for!
yes more and more obi is sound asleep and doesn’t hear me come home. sounds like you did great! thank you!
